Victoria Law Foundation awards $500,000 in grants each year for legal projects that benefit Victorians.

We fund large and small projects. Grants are awarded year-round through our Small Grants program, and in two General Grants rounds in March and September.

Why Apply?

Our process for awarding grants is two weeks for Small Grants and around two months for General Grants.

We offer support to help you plan and develop your project and your grant application. We also offer valuable expertise in publishing, education and communications to help you deliver a successful grant project.

Before you apply

Read our Grants Criteria - this will help you understand what kind of projects we want to fund.

Contact our Grants and Awards Manager - we encourage you to contact us at least six weeks before submitting an application to discuss your project.

How to apply

You can apply for two different grants:

• Apply for a General Grant if your project budget is more than $5000 (excluding GST)

• Apply for a Small Grant if your project budget is less than $5000 (excluding GST).
